How long is the probe? Will it work for cooking a turkey?
13706
Sure. The probe isn't that long maybe 4 inches, but positioned correctly as far as you can go, it should be fine

The steel part of the probe is around six inches. Yes it works great with cooking a Turkey. I have used it for two Turkey's, one pork roast and Prime rib. It worked very well.
13708
The probe measures 4.5 inches from the tip to the base. I haven't used it on a turkey yet but I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't work.

Yes, it will work for a Turkey. This tool is one of the best that you can buy and I highly recommend it.

probe is 4.5" and overall it is 7". No problem checking temp on a turkey with this.

The purpose is to put one probe into a thick piece of something like meat. Also there is a probe for hood or oven temperature. Not sure what your purpose is.

The cable is about 45 inches on the probe included with the unit. The cable on the thin probe (purchased separately) is about 52 inches.

Although I know what a turduken is, I have never actually cooked one. All I can really tell anyone is that the probe on this thermometer is 2 3/4" long. This IS a very fast-reading thermometer and I'm very pleased with both of the ones I purchased. Hope this helps you. Peg Leg, maybe this will be of more help. From the original Packing Slip: "ThermoWorks Super-Fast Mini Thermometer. Item: RT616" The ENTIRE length of this particular thermometer is approximately 5 3/4" and the actual length of the probe is still 2 3/4" Unless others are referring to another ThermoWorks model, I don't know why there is a difference in the probe length. Let me know how things work out. I just want you to have a good "TUR"--"DUCK"--"EN", not a bad "TURD"--"UCK"--"EN". GOOD COOKING!!!

The probe has to be immersed in a liquid that will never exceed 220 or so. As long as you can set that up to happen, I can't see why that wouldn't work. But, you have to be sure you have some circulation in a vessel that large, so you are not just reading a "spot" temperature. I'm using an old large round crockpot that heats very evenly from the sides. There is no heating element on the bottom of the crock, and I'm having really good luck with a very precise temperature control verified with a Thermoworks Pro thermometer, unless I overload the crockpot with product. I can do 2 really nice size pork loins for instance and it convection circulates just fine. With 3 in there, it starts to get a little spotty. So, as long as your roaster oven is indeed manual and retains its settings between power applications, and you keep the probe away from the sides and immersed, it should work just fine. I'd recommend just setting the roaster on high, and cook away!

The flexible part is about 44", so overall just about 4 feet from plug to tip of probe. I believe you can order additional or replacement probes with longer cords if needed, but this length is more than sufficient for our ovens at home.

I used mine in a prime rib roast which I started on 500 degrees to sear (20 minutes or so) then turned it down to 325 until it reached desired doneness. Probe and remote worked fine. :-)

It would work, but: Pushing a blunt tip into a hunk of meat would be a chore. Also, it's a shorter probe, so you may not be measuring the temp at the center (coldest) part of a thick cut like pork butt.

The probe length is a little short of 3 inches. As you're inserting it into the middle or half way in the largest diameter would be a little short of 6 inches. The chicken thigh depth is within the 3 inches and the diameter of a pork tenderloin is less then the 6 inches, so it should work for both. Judge the other cuts of meat accordingly.

Yes, if the probe is in a "shallow" piece of meat and most of the probe is in the oven, it still reads correctly. I recently cooked a 2.5 prime rib and put the probe into the center and it worked accurately. It does not have to be "deep".

I use mine to check temps on cooking surfaces. The furthest I've tried it is around 3 feet. Sorry I'm of no help to you for your application.

The probe cord is 36 inches long not counting the actual probe....I love mine

The probes diameter is .575 inches measured with a caliper, a little over 9/16 inch.

The braided wire cord for the food probe is 30" from tip to probe. The barbecue probe cord is 34". The food probe is 6" and the barbecue probe is 3".

Just the wire is 37 inches. Including the probe and plug 47 inches. We've used it in both the oven and the grill with no problem. There is enough length to have it mid roast, turkey, etc. In the middle of the oven and close the door with the unit sitting on the counter next to it.

It seems to be a standard 3.5m port that is used by most, if not all grill probes. I know that I was able to use probes from other grill thermometers wothout a problem.

If you go to the ThermoWorks website you can buy a probe specially-made for doing air temps. It includes a little bracket to help you attach it to a grill. It's less than $20. I'm thinking of getting one to test the temp of my oven. Hope that helps, Joe
